Description

Citrus CsGATA gene and method for enhancing citrus canker resistance by using same
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of plant disease-resistant molecular breeding, in particular to a citrus CsGATA gene and a method for enhancing citrus canker resistance by using the same.
Background
Citrus canker (Citrus bacterial canker, CBC) is a bacterial disease caused by xanthomonas carpet grass subspecies citrus (Xanthomonas citri subsp. Citri, xcc) that jeopardizes most current main-cultivated citrus varieties. Therefore, strengthening the research on prevention and control of citrus canker is an urgent need for the development of the citrus industry. Traditional prevention and control means of citrus canker, such as disease tree incineration, pesticide use and the like, require a great deal of manpower and material resources, and cause huge environmental hazards. Therefore, the prevention and treatment of citrus canker is more expected to be used for breeding new disease-resistant germplasm.
Molecular breeding is rapidly developed and widely used at present because of the capability of directionally and efficiently breeding new disease-resistant germplasm. In recent years, some citrus resources for resisting canker, such as orange, xinhui orange and navel orange strains transformed with tussah antibacterial peptide D genes, have been obtained through biotechnology means; a late brocade orange strain overexpressing CsBZIP 40; and editing the citrus canker gene CsLOB1 promoter at a fixed point to obtain plants with improved resistance to citrus canker. However, the candidate genes with high quality are still deficient, and the research on functions and action mechanisms is not deep, so that more genes closely related to citrus canker are purposefully excavated, and the functions and mechanisms of the candidate genes are deeply analyzed and used for molecular breeding of the anti-canker.
Transcription factor GATA is a group of transcription regulatory factors involved in plant growth, development and metabolism, named because of its ability to bind to the W-GATA-R (w=t/a, r=g/a) sequence on the target gene promoter (Shi et al 2022). In recent years, the understanding of the regulation and biological effects of plant GATA has been greatly improved. Members of the GATA family in plants are involved in photomorphogenetic growth, chloroplast development, chlorophyll biosynthesis, root leaf and flower development, regulation of stomata formation and photosynthesis, and the like (SCHWECHHEIMER ET al., 2022). For example, pdGATA19 can directly activate the promoter of the pdnrt2.4b gene (a high affinity nitrate transporter) in poplar, significantly increasing nitrate uptake at low nitrate supply levels in poplar, playing An important role in regulating and increasing nitrogen utilization efficiency and growth (An et al 2020). Wheat TaGATA1 can enhance dormancy of wheat seeds by directly modulating TaABI5 expression, thereby increasing spike resistance (Wei et al 2023). GATA family members also play an important role in plant abiotic stress. For example, osGATA16 improves the cold tolerance of young rice plants by inhibiting some genes associated with cold, such as OsWRKY45-1, osSRFP, osCYL and OsMYB30, as active modulators of cold tolerance (Zhang et al, 2021). GATA family members also play a critical role in plant biotic stress. For example, taGATA.sup.1 transcriptional activators positively regulate the defense response of wheat against banded sclerotial blight by binding to and activating some of the jasmonate signal-mediated defense genes (Liu et al 2020). Although GATA transcription factor regulation has been partially applied in plant disease resistance, no related studies have been reported in the field of citrus canker.
In view of this, the present application has been made.

The evaluation of the canker resistance of the VIGS plants is carried out by an in vitro needling method, and the specific operation is as follows:
Collecting mature leaves, cleaning, sterilizing with 75% alcohol, and washing with ultrapure water; needling with vein as center, spotting with a pipette to obtain 1 μl (1× 5CFU·mL-1) of ulcer bacteria liquid, and culturing in a constant temperature illumination incubator at 28deg.C (16 h illumination/8 h darkness); leaf spot was cultivated for 10d to photograph after the leaf spot was inoculated, and the size of the lesion was counted with Image J V1.47.
The disease index is calculated according to the disease index formula, the disease is divided into 0-7 grades according to the disease area, the disease area is expressed by letter R, grade 0 (R is less than or equal to 0.5mm 2), grade 1 (0.5 mm 2<R≤1.0mm2), grade 2 (1.0 mm 2<R≤1.5mm2), grade 3 (1.5 mm 2<R≤2.0mm2), grade 4 (2.0 mm 2<R≤2.5mm2), grade 5 (2.5 mm 2<R≤3.0mm2), grade 6 (3.0 mm 2<R≤3.5mm2), grade 7 (R is more than 3.5mm 2). Calculating the morbidity degree according to the formula: di=100×Σ [ number of lesions at each stage×number of corresponding stage ]/(total number of lesions×maximum number of stages).
As shown in FIG. 10, the symptoms of the VIGS plants of CsGATA.sup.12 were significantly reduced after 10d inoculation with the Umbelliferae bacteria; the area of the lesion is reduced by 52.0% at maximum; the disease index is reduced by 56.5 percent at maximum. Thus, csGATA gene silencing can enhance citrus canker resistance.
In conclusion, the invention can greatly reduce the area of the disease spots of the citrus canker and lighten the incidence of the canker through the silencing of CsGATA. The CsGATA gene provided by the invention can be silenced by various technologies, can be used for molecular breeding of canker resistance together with other disease resistance or disease susceptibility genes, and has great application value in the molecular breeding of canker resistance of oranges.
